J-Drama Pilgrimage | 怪盗 山猫 Kaito Yamaneko (2016) — 坂野家住宅 / Yuki Tenmei’s Endgame Mansion

Drama: 日本テレビ『怪盗 山猫』 / Kaito Yamaneko (2016), scoped specifically to the original 2016 NTV television series. The Nationwide Filming Location Guide identifies 水海道風土博物館「坂野家住宅」 / the Sakano Family Residence in Joso as the mansion occupied by Yuki Tenmei, the location that anchors the drama’s endgame from Episode 8 onward. Episode 8, broadcast 5 March 2016, brings Yamaneko face to face with Yuki and launches the final mission against his hidden political fortune; in the 19 March finale, Yamaneko and Sekimoto head to Yuki’s mansion in search of the enormous cache said to be hidden there. The real Sakano residence is not a fictional criminal estate but a nationally designated Important Cultural Property at 2037 Onogo-machi, Joso. It is open to the public as the Mizukaido Fudo Museum Sakano Family Residence; current tourism information lists admission and seasonal opening hours. The stored coordinate is a heritage-site pin, not an exact room, underground location, fight position, or camera mark. Visitors should follow museum access rules and never infer that any fictional hidden chamber or treasure location exists at the real property.
